In the cashew-rich districts of Mkuranga and Rufiji, a group of women farmers made a decision that changed everything. They had spent years doing the hardest work — planting, harvesting, hauling — while others captured the value of their labour. They formed a cooperative. They demanded processing rights. They built Korosho Group — not as a company, but as a movement.
Today that movement produces export-grade cashew kernels for global markets, provides income security for over 21,000 family members, and serves as one of East Africa's most compelling models for women-led agricultural enterprise.
Every operation at Korosho Group is designed to advance measurable outcomes across seven of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals — making us an evidence-based deployment vehicle for development capital.

Korosho Group conducts training activities aimed at improving the skills, knowledge, and productivity of farmers, employees, and stakeholders involved in the cashew value chain.
